Chapter 133 Sending you to the headlines ([-])
As Kobe wished, Zhao Ke's ball is really strong, without the blessing of the skill pack, the sky is not strong enough!
Ben Wallace overwhelmed O'Neal and grabbed the rebound. He was about to throw the ball to Zhao Ke to make him shoot again. The referee's whistle blew inappropriately, indicating that Ben Wallace was fouled for rebounding.
It turned out that Ben Wallace pressed O'Neill's shoulder with his hand at the moment of take-off, and was seen by the referee whose eyes suddenly became better.
This level of physical contact is generally not called by referees. Just like O'Neal's continuous elbows, the referee did not blow. If the penalty scale is unified, Ben Wallace should be a beautiful rebound this time.
Daben walked to the backcourt without saying a word, how could the referee unify the penalty scale?
This is the fifth foul of the Knicks team. Fortunately, it is an offensive foul, which is just a conversion of the ball and does not require free throws.
Fisher dribbled the ball across the half court, and this time Billups came up to press ahead of time, using his height and long arms to bully the little fish...
Fox, who was very active today, came to help. He suddenly got stuck in front of Billups. Fisher ran around Fox, and Billups chased after him.
But Fox flew upside down as if hit by a mammoth, and fell heavily on the floor.
Billups was stunned, he glanced behind, no one!
Is this a supernatural event?A transparent person attacked Fox?
Zhao Ke can say with certainty that today's Staples Center must have come to the Staples Center, something like a big Hollywood director. Look at Fox's play: there is no need to suspend Wia at the scene of the car accident!
When Billups passed by Fox just now, his shoulder did rub his chest lightly. Could it be that Fox's chest was equipped with high explosives, and there was such a big movement when he rubbed it!
The referee's whistle rang violently.
With Fox as a joker, how could the referee's joker be missing?
Since Fox must not be a flop, it is a foul by Billups pushing!
The referee made a gesture of pushing and fouling, the Knicks fouled for the sixth time, and Fox went to the free throw line.
Billups held back, "I have a question about MMP. I don't know if I should say it or not?" He walked towards the free throw line with a gloomy face, ready to line up. Zhao Ke ran over and put his arms around his shoulders, and whispered, "Chauncey, I have a plan!"
Billups' eyes lit up, Zhao Ke is a very bad boy, maybe he really has some bad ideas.
So the two walked shoulder to shoulder, and stopped queuing.
Jeff Van Gundy on the sidelines was staring at Zhao Ke with great interest. When Robert Horry made a free throw just now, Zhao Ke was talking with Chris Anderson. Now that Fox made a free throw, Zhao Ke pulled Billups aside again. This kid is holding back something, right?
Zhao Keshen said mysteriously to Billups, "Chauncey, do you know what is the record for fouls committed in a single quarter in the NBA?"
Billups was at a loss, shook his head and said, "I don't know, what's wrong?"
Zhao Ke flattered him again: "You have a long golfing experience and a lot of experience, so let's make an estimate."
Billups pondered for a moment, and said uncertainly, "Maybe there should be fourteen or five fouls. Generally, ten fouls are quite a lot. About twenty to thirty fouls in a game are considered normal."
Zhao Ke smiled wretchedly, and said in a low voice, "Chauncey, you said if the referee calls us a 15:0 foul in the first quarter, will he make headlines?"
Billups widened his eyes and said angrily: "Don't say 15:0, even if it is 10:0, he will still be in the headlines. So next, he will definitely find a balance and call a few insignificant fouls to the Lakers to make the number of fouls more normal."
Zhao Ke showed a mysterious and wretched smile again, and said in a voice that only the two of them could hear: "What if we don't cooperate with him to find a balance?"
Billups squinted his eyes: "You mean, avoid fouling the Lakers?"
Zhao Ke nodded.
Billups was a little worried and said: "Then I guess we will be beaten by the Lakers in the first quarter!"
Zhao Ke patted his chest and said, "Don't worry about it. My hands are very hot today. I can't catch up in the first quarter. Don't we still have three quarters?"
Billups thought inwardly: "Hot shit, you just missed a three-pointer!" But Zhao Ke's proposal is very attractive, this referee is too fucking over the top, he must be punished.
Billups rubbed his beardless chin and said thoughtfully: "On the defensive end, we can increase physical contact and let the referee call us more fouls. In this way, the Lakers have almost no chance to attack with the ball, and offensive fouls cannot be called. On the offensive end, we have to withdraw from the inside and reduce physical contact. We mainly rely on shooting. The Lakers also have no chance of fouling!"
Zhao Ke agreed, and he split up with Billups and passed the tactics to the other three, so the expressions of the five Knicks on the court became weird.
Jeff Van Gundy said to Tom Thibodeau: "Guess what Zhao Ke was discussing with Billups just now, why did everyone's expressions become so strange?"
Tom Thibodeau said solemnly: "I can't guess, I'm an upright gentleman, Zhao Ke and the others can hold back something when they see it, this is not my style..."
Jeff Van Gundy nodded, "Yes, it's not my style either!"
Fox was really good today, he hit two free throws, he must have left a deep impression on someone big!
The score became 11:3, and it was the Knicks' turn to attack.
As usual, Billups dribbled the ball very slowly across the half court, stepped across the center line for eight seconds, then pointed to Chris Anderson to stay 45° to the left of the three-point line, and asked Ben Wallace to lift up and stand near the free throw line, no longer fighting hand-to-hand with O'Neal.
Artest and Zhao Ke fell to the bottom line respectively, and Billups himself stood 45° to the right of the three-point line.
Then, the Knicks' five "shooters" began to pass the ball irregularly. They no longer moved and ran, and the Lakers' defense did not lose their position. This kind of inverted ball is meaningless.
Jeff Van Gundy and Tom Thibodeau looked at each other, saw the blankness in each other's eyes, then looked away at the same time, said nothing, and continued to watch the game.
The on-site commentator at the Staples Center said doubtfully: "Are the Knicks going to give up? Did consecutive fouls make them lose the courage to go inside?"
The offensive time was consumed little by little. At the last second, the basketball came into the hands of Chris Anderson. Facing Robert Horry's defense, he did not hesitate to make a three-pointer!
This is Chris Anderson's first three-pointer this season. Although he also practiced three-pointers with Zhao Kejia at the beginning of the season, but at the end of the practice, he changed to rebounding with the substitute lineup. It is really iron, there are more opportunities to pick up the ball than to shoot!
